EcoForms™ Environmentally Friendly alternatives to Plastic Pots

Environmentally friendly gardeners are looking for alternatives to plastic planters. Plastic pots are made from petroleum, require significant energy to make and when no longer needed are usually thrown in the trash where they can take centuries to decompose.

Here is one alternative from Sweetwater Nursery ... their line of EcoForms™ pots.
